In the aftermath of FOREVER EVIL, Adam Strange is caught up in an adventure across the far reaches of the cosmos that will unite an unexpected team of heroes including Supergirl, Hawkman, Green Arrow, Stargirl, Martian Manhunter and Animal Man – but if they’re on the team, who exactly is Canadian?

“First Contact” continues from the explosive WORLD’S FINEST #20 as Batman, Superman, Huntress and Power Girl battle a massive new threat to the DC Universe! As Kaizan Gamorra unleashes the means to take down Superman, an unbelievable discovery is made that will have major repercussions in 2014 !

Centuries ago, Hercules aided Atlantis in a time of great need and suffered great betrayal for his efforts at the hands of the same King of Atlantis he was helping. Now, the neo-God is back – but is he bent on revenge, or has he been consumed by madness? And even if Aquaman can contain Hercules, the Gigantomachy are now free to wreak havoc wherever they go!

Guy Gardner’s got a missing comrade, a red-ring-wielding Supergirl, and a deeply pissed-off Atrocitus to deal with! The last thing he needs is another new Red Lantern – especially when this one may be the deadliest Red to ever wear the ring! But whose side will this new Lantern join? And will Rankorr survive his close encounter with Atrocitus and Dex-Starr?

FINAL ISSUE ! In the wake of FOREVER EVIL, The Titans return to learn that Harvest has grown more powerful in their absence! And with the body of Jon Lane Kent gone from its chamber, Harvest is marshaling all the resources of N.O.W.H.E.R.E. to get it back! All this and the return of Bunker and Beast Boy!

Well, I'm finally pulling the trigger and dropping The Flash. The quality really plunged since issue #24 and Wally West or no, I really can't see myself sticking around to find out if Robert Venditti's writing can overcome Brett Booth's abysmal art.

They've already said that Kara being a Red Lantern is only temporary and the result of that is her new, better attitude. I would assume that Justice League United occurs after the events in Red Lanterns and her own tile.

Right. But the RL storyline is going at least through issue 33... so this is getting WAY out in front of that.

Also, we have heard this song and dance before. She was supposed to come out of H'el in better shape, and it got worse. Then Nelson when he took over made the same noises about getting her to a better place, and he made it worse. So forgive me if I am skeptical that they are EVER going to get this Kara into a good place... especially since I don't consider most of their characters to be in a "good" place right now.

The story was okay but I think that the goofy looking creatures probably pulled some readers out of the moment.

I'm sorry but it's just a concept that really doesn't make any sense to me. You have a comic written by Jeff Lemire featuring two characters that Lemire knows and has written extremely well in Animal Man and Green Arrow getting into all kinds of cosmic adventures with Adam Strange and the Martian Manhunter but the only thing that looks interesting to you is a new character whose powers are dependent upon whether it's shorts or sweater season?! I just...I can't even process it.

Pre-52 Lemire and I did not get a long.

But New 52- Lemire and I - different story. Can't wait for my comic box and JL United!
